    Blues not bad. I still go against thread locker most of the time, but blue is definitely a happy schmedium. I'm glad you did too, that could had been ugly.

    I am in the middle of figure that all out. I had my SwitchPro, fuse blocks, solar mppt there. Not sure yet where but good chance a good chunk goes to the passenger side.

    Do it! Mine is just about done. Just got in the Holley mount to relocate the SAIS.

    @SUMOTNK also was playing around with Mounting my stuff on passenger side.

    I alway thought a boost gauge/sensor should be after the throttle body? Is that coupler with the bung before the throttle body?

    This is correct. Pre throttle body, will not have an accurate vacuum reading. Easiest place to tap, is on the hose right after the TB, or a reducer on that capped brake booster port.

    Shit bolted onto other shit, and junk.
    Looks good my man. Those solid state relays are nice on the switch pro. I think I am going to build a 10 relay bussman for that spot. However, I plan on pulling the trigger on Tim's Dana 60 for sale so need to divert all my pennies. I don't think I will ever find something like that more ideal and cheaper.

    This will be the first time using since install too!

    Just peace of mind, especially now.

    I forgot it was just Toyota gasket maker. Hopefully I can get a good seal.

    yah thats a killer deal. If I was closer I may have jumped on some of his gear. That rear end would be prime. Thinking about a dual setup and building out the blue sea on the passenger then keeping the switch pro on the drivers side mounted on the side. re-wiring everything is more work then the S/C

    @12TRDTacoma hey would you happen to have the part number for the carb sticker that would come with that trd intake? Trying to see if I can get one and then just use the parts you have listed in this thread.

    "If your state requires an Emissions Compliance Label, one may be ordered through your Toyota dealer or the Toyota Materials Distribution Center (MDC) 310-468-9800[​IMG] or MDC@toyota.com

    This TRD Performance Air Intake Kit has received 50-State Emissions Compliance via the California Air Resources Board (CARB). Not all states require the Emissions Compliance Label but TRD does recommend ordering one. To receive the proper Emissions Compliance Label for this TRD Performance Air Intake Kit, please order MDC part number 00602-35130. Proof of ownership may be required."

    *note* just call dealer with part number. I emailed and got this response:

    Unfortunately, we are strictly dealer support. Please contact your local to dealer to place the below order.

    Sorry at one point in time we were able to place orders for retail customers but we no longer are able to.

    Also, if the vac/boost gauge is too close to the electronic solenoid, on the driver side of the intake manifold which is for the evap canister, then the needle will bounce in rhythm with its operation.

    Appreciate it. There should be a compiled Gauge thread or similar. this is great knowledge that gets lost in the shuffle or forgotten to be passed along to us 'new' guys.

    I do not. I gave the dealer the part number listed on the sticker itself and they came back with a "that doesn't go into the system" line on me. Luckily I ended up dealing with a competent dude who had a clue what I was talking about and he hooked me up with a free decal along with the intake setup when I bought it all. Anyone who knows what they are doing at your local dealer should be able to hook it up for you.
